    Everything was going good until.... Buzzzz

    They go for the mouth and eyes because that's pretty much the only spots bears are sensitive.

    Potential bx2380 buyer

    I had a 60 on my B2920, the problem is uneven cut on side slopes and bumps, tractor leans sideways and the wider 60 inch deck is more prone to this problem, low side cuts shorter, the high side cuts longer. I went with the 54 on m BX2380 which helps.

    FEL on a BX1870

    Well I was walking funny after lol. This is NOT the cheapest way to add rear ballast, in fact its probably the most expensive. I love it, its small so doesn't take up much room in my garage and its small on the back of the tractor. On/off is super fast, the mobile cart lets me roll it out of my...

    FEL on a BX1870

    Correct that's a QH10. Do not be tempted by the cheaper QH05 I had to return the one I purchased because the Kubota suitcase weights don't fit the QH05. The rounded top tube on the QH05 is in the way of the front part of the Kubota suitcase weights. If you look close you can also see the Heavy...

    FEL on a BX1870

    What Tractor Dell said ^^^. I recently went down a small hill OUT OF CONTROL on the front tires because my BX2380 FEL with a full bucket of soil was enough to lift the rear wheels off the ground, no brakes no HST control. Fortunately it was a small hill maybe 30 feet of slope but man the tractor...

    Mid-mount mower questions

    Mower can be operated at the highest mower deck height knob position. Will it turn in the fully raised locked position yes, but I don't mow at that height. For best results most at max RPM, though I will throttle down in some areas that are dusty or whatever, don't be afraid to momentarily...

    Post holes with a BH?

    I had to dig all my neighbors fence post holes with my 16" backhoe bucket due to all the roots and rocks we have here. This left a large hole, he used some 10" diameter carboard concrete form tube from home depot, cut into maybe 16 inch lengths, stuck those in the hole, we back filled around...

    Potential bx2380 buyer

    I paid $14,750 for a BX2380, 54" deck, loader. I got the standard deck (not the drive over) and the standard loader higher capacity vs the quick attach.

    Ballast box/skidder/receiver hitch

    Heavy Hitch weld quality is off the charts. Looks like they TIG weld them they are that clean of spatter, really nice finish work they take pride in their product.

    Ballast box/skidder/receiver hitch

    Maybe Heavy Hitch can help you out, here's mine only cat 1 and 500lbs you would need larger maybe check out their website. Mine has a built in hitch, hook, and safety chain loops. I also purchased their weight cart which you shove into the hitch, lower to the ground and roll it easily across the...

    Backhoe ?

    Like the other guy said, the time consuming annoyance is removing/installing the 3pt arms I HATED doing that on my B2920. Way different/easier design on my BX2380. Here's the thing, on the B2920 the big steel frame supports for the backhoe run along side of the 3pt lower arms. You have to pry...

    Backhoe ?

    Did I regret it no, but I did sell it after I was finished with it. If you have BH work to do I say go for it. One huge advantage is that I was able to do the BH work on my property gradually over a 2 year period, taking my time on my schedule. Really convenient owning my own BH, if a job took...
